    IOW, the Coke sign in the crack house is likely about as relevant as the Nike swish and the Just Do It logo

    Maybe if a nike sign was hung at the local brothel.....

    No, it's an instance of blind push advertising. It's like a Coke sign in a crack house.

    How is that blind?

    Ah... my shoddy mastery of the English language made me read the headline as 'Irish government seeks to reign in cyber bullying', which to me seems to be a much more attainable goal.

    No it's not. My govermnet holds that postion with an iron fist. USA! USA!

    Analogously, they shouldn't bother going after attempted murderers because they didn't manage to kill their victim.

    Wasting money protecting source code after the event. I'm a taxpayer - I don't give a shit about it. If someone releases a game based on it, follow the money. Some guy with some source code - big deal.

    On the other hand Valve pays their taxes too amd they do care.

    That's true for MySpace, but not for Facebook. Sounds like you're basing your opinion on Facebook on MySpace.

    Go check out Facebook. You might be surprised. Virtually everyone I know with a computer uses Facebook - more than half of my friends on FB are over 25.

    All the hammer and bell did was wake the witch up. That world was already doomed before the kids got there. It was the deplorable word that wiped out the inhabitants and old age that killed the planet.
